Discord & Slack Announcements

The Discord and Slack destinations post a release announcement through an incoming webhook once your build has shipped. They share the same message template and placeholders. The webhook URL grants posting rights, so it is treated as a secret: stored AES-256 encrypted and never logged.

The message template

Both destinations expand these placeholders in the template:

  • {product}Application.productName
  • {version} — the bundle version of the build
  • {profile} — the profile name
  • {changelog} — the topmost section of the configured changelog
  • {duration} — how long the build took
  • {target} — the build target name

The default template is:

🚀 **{product} {version}** ({profile}) is out!
{changelog}

Discord

  1. In your Discord server, open Server Settings → Integrations → Webhooks → New Webhook, pick a channel and copy the webhook URL.
  2. Paste it into the destination’s Webhook URL field and customize the message template.

Discord caps message content at 2000 characters; longer messages are truncated. Enable Attach Changelog to attach the changelog excerpt as a changelog.txt file instead of inlining it.

Slack

Create an incoming webhook, paste the URL into the destination and customize the template. Slack uses the same placeholders as Discord.
